  2. Wien's displacement law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien's_displacement_law

    Formally, the wavelength version of Wien's displacement law states that the spectral radiance of black-body radiation per unit wavelength, peaks at the wavelength given by: = where T is the absolute temperature and b is a constant of proportionality called Wien's displacement constant, equal to 2.897 771 955... × 10 −3 m⋅K, [1] [2] or b ...

  3. Wien approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien_approximation

    Comparison of Wien’s curve and the Planck curve. Wien's approximation (also sometimes called Wien's law or the Wien distribution law) is a law of physics used to describe the spectrum of thermal radiation (frequently called the blackbody function). This law was first derived by Wilhelm Wien in 1896.

  4. Black-body radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black-body_radiation

    A consequence of Wien's displacement law is that the wavelength at which the intensity per unit wavelength of the radiation produced by a black body has a local maximum or peak, , is a function only of the temperature: =, where the constant b, known as Wien's displacement constant, is equal to + 2.897 771 955 × 10 −3 m K. [31]

    Thus, the light flux with wavelengths in a specific range can be found by integrating over the range. The peak wavelength is determined by the temperature, T emit based on Wien's displacement law: =, where b is Wien's displacement constant. For most materials, the maximum temperature an emitter can stably operate at is about 1800 °C.

  6. List of eponymous laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_eponymous_laws

    Wien's displacement law states that the black body radiation curve for different temperatures peaks at a wavelength inversely proportional to the temperature. Named for Wilhelm Wien. (See also Wien approximation.) Wiio's laws: The fundamental Wiio's law states that "Communication usually fails, except by accident".

  7. Wien's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien's_law

    Wien's law or Wien law may refer to: . Wien approximation, an equation used to describe the short-wavelength (high frequency) spectrum of thermal radiation; Wien's displacement law, an equation that describes the relationship between the temperature of an object and the peak wavelength or frequency of the emitted light

    Formulas for the various peak wavelengths and mean photon energy were taken from the Wikipedia Wien's displacement law page. The median and quartiles were computed by numerically integrating Planck's law ; however, for any who wish to avoid this, information on percentiles is given in the Planck's law article.

  9. Draper point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draper_point

    The value of the Draper point can be calculated using Wien's displacement law: the peak frequency (in hertz) emitted by a blackbody relates to temperature as follows: [4] =, where k is the Boltzmann constant, h is the Planck constant,
